DLTK's Crafts for KidsScottish Bagpiper Paper Craft

This is a simple cut and paste paper craft that can be done "just
for fun", Burns night or a Scottish theme.

Please keep in mind that it's hard to make a
"tartan" that can be colored in by young children (at
least it was for me *grin*). Hopefully, this is close enough to get the idea across!

A real tartan is quite a bit
more complicated with a horizontal and vertical weave of a variety
of different colors (an example is pictured to the left.)

Materials:

something to color with if using the B&W version,

scissors,

glue,

paper,

printer

Instructions:

Print out the craft template of choice.

Color (if using the black and white version of the craft) and cut out the template pieces. You can cut out template 1 (the boy) or just
cut out template 2 and glue all the pieces onto the full sheet of template
1. It's up to you!

Glue the bagpiper together in the following order:

boots

bowtie

coat

kilt (Scottish skirt)

"tam-o'-shanter" (Scottish cap)

bagpipes

See picture on the template for further help.
